She told its an UTI problem and she asked me to take three days course with some injections in the saline bottle .. Am i going through right medication ?
Hi,
Welcome to XXXXXXX and thanks for your query.
The next step is to give midstream urine sample ( the urine is collected as usual, except that the initial few drops are discarded to avoid contamination) for culture and sensitivity ( if not already given).
The results will be out in 48 hours and it will guide your doctor to choose the correct antibiotic.
Till then, if the saline bottle contains antibiotic, its fine. Otherwise speak to the doc about it and get it done, till the results of culture are out.
It looks like you are in the right line of treatment.
Wish you good health---
Regards
DR GS

Hi,
Welcome back.
Amikacin is an antibiotic.
Others are supportive.
Pls get a culture done yourself, by going to a lab and giving a sample.
